"Stop Press !" - We Do Like To Be Beside The Sea! - Morecambe, Lancashire
Following the sad demise (hopefully temporary) of the Easter Lancaster Maritime Festival, we are pleased to announce that
there is to be a weekend celebration of traditional seaside fun & frolics, music, spectacle and exhilarating daredevil
antics, all on Morecambe's seafront, including sea song and shanties performed by Louis Killen, Stormalong John, Andy Kenna,
Sid Kipper, Paul Sirman, One Sheet Short and Inner State Theatre.
For further information, visit: Morecambe 2009 or contact Val Simpkin on 01524 582872 or
email vsimpkin@lancaster.gov.uk
"Shanties on the Radio"
There are regular programmes on various radio stations available via "web links" to download programmes of sea music.
